Tigo B | Eat To Live | Episode #87

The Hilltop Glove Podcast

Step into the vibrant world of Tigo B, the Charlotte-based rapper and entrepreneur, on a fresh episode of The Hilltop Glove Podcast. Join us as we delve into the captivating story of Tigo B and his business partner, Lamont Heath, the dynamic duo behind Romeo's Vegan Burgers.
Their journey is a heartwarming tale of brotherly love and unwavering trust, cultivated during their early adulthood when Tigo B made the move from Raleigh to Greensboro. Even as the pandemic brought travel to a standstill, these relentless hustlers never wavered in their pursuit of health and wellness. Heath characterizes their partnership as a haven where they can let their guards down and be their true selves around each other. Their bond is unbreakable, with the firm belief that their personal relationship should always take precedence over business.
Both Tigo B and Heath have been committed to the vegan lifestyle for years, and they're on a mission to prove that vegan food can be cool, far beyond the stereotypical image of lettuce and earthy, hippie fare. Despite their meals resembling fast food, patrons are more than willing to wait 30-45 minutes due to the exceptional taste. In fact, the majority of their customers aren't even vegan; they simply relish the remarkable quality of the food—a rarity in the vegan community.
Drawing inspiration from their extensive experience in the music industry, Tigo B and Heath have crafted unique marketing strategies for Romeo's. The mystery and intrigue surrounding their daily location is a part of their charm, with word-of-mouth spreading like wildfire. As a cherry on top, picture a 90s-style cartoon illustrated food truck cruising through the South End of Charlotte.
Whether you prefer online ordering or an in-person visit to their locations in Charlotte or Greensboro, North Carolina, this episode will grant you an exclusive peek behind the curtain of their creative process, their incredible journey to success, and their boundless vision for the future.
